YOU ARE CORRECT !!! There is NOTHING new what so ever. And for people who
though the last upgrade was a rip-off, well this one tops it all. They are
just milking the cow here !!!!

>
>
>
> The upgrade information is on the Equis website at
> http://www.equis.com/metastock/windows95nt/70upgrade.html.
>
> It is not very clear as to what is new over version 7.03. Most of the
> features listed appear to
> already be in version 7.03.
>
> There does not appear to be any information about
> compatibility of the 7.0x
> developer's toolkit with the new version (presumably this
> works just fine).
> Also, no statement can be found on compatibility of any
> purchased add-ins
> with the new upgrade. Presumably we will need to
> contact each vendor for suitability and/or upgrade costs. A
> current list
> of 3rd party vendor websites would be helpful as well. Here
> is my known
> list:
>
> www.tsagroup.com
> www.debry.com
> www.tetrahex.com
>
> I did receive this information on Yahoo Clubs from EQUISPR
> (Equis press
> release??):
>
> MetaStock® now contains more ready-made trading tools than
> ever before.
> MetaStock Performance Systems(tm) are 26 new trading systems
> built into
> MetaStock 7.2. These systems are designed to be profitable
> over a large
> database of securities, not just two or three. They have also
> been shown to
> have a high percentage of wins compared with a buy-and-hold
> strategy. In
> addition, other changes have been made in MetaStock,
> including resizable
> formula editor dialogs, the ability for URLs in the custom
> toolbar to pass
> literals (such as symbols), an expanded color palette, and new
> Internet-related features that make it more Internet-capable
> than any other
> trading software available.
>
> Traders may choose MetaStock 7.2 on a monthly subscription
> plan or through a
> one-time purchase. The monthly subscription plan includes
> MetaStock 7.2, the
> Professional Package of Reuters DataLink data, and all
> upgrades as soon as
> they become available, at a price of $59 per month. The data includes
> unlimited history for all U.S. and Canadian stocks, U.S.
> futures markets,
> and unlimited quotes on all U.S. mutual funds and all indices (market
> averages, market indicators, and international quotes). This
> data package
> alone is worth $64.95 per month, making the MetaStock lease a
> bargain for
> Reuters DataLink customers.
>
> MetaStock is also available for a one-time purchase price of
> $449. Customers
> who choose this option will still need to pay for monthly
> data from Reuters
> DataLink or one of five other data providers.
> Either option is available through Equis (by phone at
> 800-882-3040, fax at
> 801-265-3999, email at sales@xxxxxxxxx, or online at
> www.equis.com) and
> through authorized MetaStock dealers.
>
> The new lease option seems to match the AIQ pricing policy
> (at least for
> EOD but probably not real-time and does not include the professional
> version???).
> It is not clear on how the pricing for real-time feeds are affected.
> Hopefully
> this information can be found on the Equis website. I
> believe the Metastock
> mentioned for 449 is the EOD version and not the professional
> version of
> Metastock.
> The professional in the sentence refers only to the data package.
> Hopefully,
> Equis will clarify this for us.
>
> In addition, TSAgroup is offering the following (presumably a
> part of 7.2
> but maybe not)
> Also, not clear if the plug-in is included in 7.2 but
> probably not along
> with the additional trading systems. Also, not clear if the
> 7.2 upgrade
> is needed to use the plug-in:

> For the last 6+ months we have been working

> MetaStock Performance Systems is a set of 26
> trading systems with indicators, explorations, and
> expert advisors. They have been tested and are
> ready to go. The systems have been shown to
> consistently outperform buy and hold for the amount

>
> MetaStock Performance Systems Plus is another 54
> trading systems, with corresponding indicators,
> explorations, and expert advisors chosen with the
> same rigorous testing standards as the Performance
> Systems.
>
> These systems were selected out of sever hundred
> systems and several variations, amounting to
> thousands of tests for profitability. Unlike other
> trading systems, these were not tested on just a
> few stocks each but were tested on several thousand
> stocks each. When you get the Performance Systems
> and Performance Systems Plus plug-in, you will also
> get a whole new type of exploration. This
> exploration allows you to conduct a points-only
> system test for each system across your entire
> database of stocks at one time. The exploration
> also shows you the trade efficiency performance of
> the system against buy-and-hold, FOR EVERY STOCK IN
> THE DATABASE. This is a whole new type of analysis
> power never before available in MetaStock.
>
> We're proud to have been able to develop this for
> Equis International, and we are very excited to see
> how customers like this new power. For information
> on the MetaStock Performance Systems or the
> MetaStock Performance Systems Plus, you will need
> to contact Equis International sales at 800-882-
> 3040 or 801-265-9996. The expected release date is
> April 1st so they probably will be unable to assist
> much before then.
